Harris says, 'It's time to stop pointing fingers and start locking arms'
At the top of her speech at the Ellipse Tuesday, Harris took shots at former President Donald Trump's recent rhetoric, specifically invoking his "enemy from within" comment.
"This is someone who is unstable, obsessed with revenge, consumed with grievance and out for unchecked power. Donald Trump has spent a decade trying to keep the American people divided and afraid of each other," Harris said.
"That is who he is, but America, I am here tonight to say, that is not who we are. That is not who we are," Harris added.
The vice president went on to call for unity across the nation.
"We have to stop pointing fingers and start locking arms. It is time to turn the page on the drama and the conflict, the fear and division. It is time for a new generation of leadership in America," Harris said.
